Yes

Normally yes, I dont know if this is changing for some reason when its hot. 
I have heard the pump relay operate correctly in the past, though I have not 
checked that lately. I will confirm that it is still functioning correctly

I just checked the air temp switch, along with the head temp switch last 
weekend, they both ohmed out ok...2.4k on the head, and 320 I believe on the 
air temp (cold)...easy thing to check ill do it again.

If you are refering to the miswiring of swapping the air temp and the CSV, 
then thats not the case here. I also checked that when I checked the 
resistance of the air temp switch...the correct plug was plugged into the 
air temp switch. Then again, I did not check to see what was plugged into 
the cold start valve...I will check all the items and report back on my 
findings.

Thanks

Drake
